A 12.2 m long board is supported from beneath at two locations. One is at the far left end of the board. The other is 1 m from the right end of the board. The board has a mass of 39.3 kg. What is the normal force (in newtons) applied by the right support?
A 6.0 m plank with a mass of 50 kg is supported on both ends. An 80 kg worker stands on the plank
1.5 m away from the left end. What weight must each end of the plank support? Separate your
answers by a comma (i.e. 340 N, 567 N - the first answer for the left end, the second answer for
the right end). Express your answer as a whole number (no decimal). Add the appropriate units.
